rauchbier (3205) - Isle Of Beer, Lincolnshire, ENGLAND - JUN 4, 2006
Bottle conditioned, from Beer Cellar in Lincoln. Faintly hazy gold, big fluffy lasting white head and over enthusiastic condiion (gushing on opening). Gentle fruity yeast and mildly citric hop aromas, gentle sweet honeyed malt and chalky yeast notes at first in the mouth but some spicy hoppiness emerging. Short and slightly yeasty finish.

(Bottle 50 cl) Very unclear amber golden with floating impurities and a small, off-white head. Vague, nutty nose. Quite light body with weak notes of caramel and fruit. A mild bitterness in the finish. Drinkable but also very ordinary. 300106
